It is easily addressed: trade Dunn.

That's trading over 30% of your offense when it's at best unproven Bruce can replace it and Hamilton can hold up for an entire season.

You know very little about baseball if you think trading Dunn is bad.

Can you make a point instead of just being dismissive and insulting to someone who might disagree with your non-point?

The point is so obvious that it doesn't need re-stating. I don't like stating the obvious.

Okay, maybe I'm as stupid as you say, but would you just make the [censored] point already.

I believe what Vyse is tired of saying is that Dunn is a terrible defensive OF. While he generates lots of runs with his walks and HR, he costs the Reds runs with his D. Is that about right Vyse?

Even with those adjustments, and they are huge, he's terrible on defense, he's still the second most valuable player on the Reds and a top 5 overall LF in the majors. Maybe I'm wrong and he's just as terrible at 1B, but I think he'd be more valuable there.

EDIT: He's the 3rd most valuable Red, 2nd if were only talking position players.
